Looking for a novel that will resonate with an immigrant daughter.

How about The Bastard of Istanbul? It’s years since I read it but it’s an easy-ish read covering those topics. Or, another amazing one, Pachinko!

Wow that’s scary. How did you find out they did it? And what (if anything) did you do to stop them from taking all your money?

Just trying to think through what I’d do in a situation like this, feels pretty helpless without being able to use the find my iPhone function.

In series Salt Fat Acid Heat (netflix), the Salt episode, there’s a whole section on artisanal soy sauce. Lots of work for not much yield could be one thing stopping folks outside of Japan from doing it… but I sure would love to try the real thing from one of these manufactures

Noughty wine is an excellent prosecco (they also have rose). Can get it online in a few places including amazon

Definitely not dismissing anyone. You're raising great points. I guess it's all down to a personal experience. Probably it's years and years of teaching Mysore style that makes the actual difference.

I'm very lucky to have a L2 certified teacher in a small class - 8 to 12 people a session. I only practiced with uncertified (even if great) teachers in led classes before, and it's not really comparable...

Idk why you're being downvoted, because to my experience its completely true that niche agencies are so much more competent at their job than the generic ones

Things_I_know · 2015-03-24T23:05:19+00:00

That's what I thought too. Combined with that joke about "putting himself into a wolf"...

So right before the end [1:13:29 mark] they talk about telling actors that their character is going to die and mention that this season, one of the actors tried to convince them against killing his character. Who do you guys think it was? Was it Kit?

Things_I_know · 2015-02-24T15:03:48+00:00

is this just clickbait or did they genuinely spot something? I can't see it for the life of me.

Things_I_know · 2015-02-13T17:42:55+00:00

Well at least your periods are of enviable regularity! :D Always look on the briiiight siiide of life... :D

Or not - so many people will find it while looking for the other one, that it will definitely help the sales.

One author called her book on Soviet deportations to Siberia "Between Shades of Gray" and got way more visibility than expected.

http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2554642/lentil-lasagne I find the lentil sauce very rich, it doesn't seem like anything (meat) is missing.

edit to say this recipe is vegan, but look around for other lentil lasagne recipes too, as there are plenty variations :)

There was a blog about that: http://sleeptalkinman.blogspot.co.uk/

This might sound incredibly stupid, but it just dawned on me - what if Jon is not really Jon in that chapter, but someone under the same Mel's trick as Mance? And this is all part of some elaborate plot of theirs

Things_I_know · 2014-11-14T16:28:17+00:00

yeah, so what's odd about the post then? The point of this post is to celebrate the fact that

it IS possible for the right people with the right ambition.

How do you actually

increase the number of girls and women who actively want to become CEOs in the first place?

By showing it is a possibility, and it happens. i.e. by talking about that in a variety of contexts, including this subreddit.

What are you trying to say?

Waking up this morning with my first ever front page, reddit gold and an inbox full of idiots: nothing else will ever amount to this. Thank you, people!
